...When I was twenty years old I thought that when I would reach the age of fifty I would find peace of mind, but each day I am more confused, more lost, as your knowledge span is broadened you feel more insecure, you see that everything is relative and that you know less of everything; now I miss that age of twenty when I really felt like Superman and thought that I had everything. ...I could not live without the guitar, but at the same time this is no way of life, because it is such a difficult intstrument, so ungrateful; you dedicate you whole life to it, hours and days, and suddenly you come out on stage, and that day you feel in perfect shape for playing, and still you don't hit one single string right, and you cannot figure out why... it depends on so many things, on how long your fingernails are... I am talking about tenths of millimeters, and you ask yourself: "What is going on? Where am I failing?" And it could be a badly polished nail... it's a fucker of an instrument. I don't have a good relationship with the guitar; as an instrument, it's got an ugly character, I can truly say that I dislike it. full interview |
